Concrete Angel Lyrics

Artist: Martina McBride
Album: Greatest Hits

She walks to school with the lunch
She packed
Nobody knows what she's
Holdin' back
Wearin' the same dress
She wore yesterday
She hides the bruises with linen
And lace

(oh oh)

The teacher wonders but she
Doesn't ask
It's hard to see the pain
Behind the mask
Bearing the burden
Of a secret storm
Sometimes she wishes she was
Never born

Chorus:
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where
She's loved
Concrete angel

Somebody cries in the middle
Of the night
The neighbors hear, but they turn
Out the lights
A fragile soul caught in the hands
Of fate
When morning comes
It'll be too late

Repeat Chorus

A statue stands in a shaded place
An angel girl with an upturned face
A name is written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world forgot

Repeat Chorus

I agree with everyone else about this song...about how sad and real it is...to me, this song is full of emotion and pation about a lonely forgotten girl that is beaten down all of her life but yet she still holds through...And not only is this a sad song but it also shows strength...

Everyone in some way can relate to this song...

I agree with evryone else about this song...it is an emotional sad song

but to me it is not only a sad song...to me this song represints all the people that have been beaten down there hole life and some how most of them are strong enuff to pull through and survive the hell hole they were put through because someone else wanted to put the blame on them...and it also could be there own fault...but how could it be if it started when you were 3...

no matter what kind of crap that you've gone through theres always a silver litening over the horizon.

you can pull through and prove you have got what it takes to be better than the best... better than all the people that put you down...and beat you untill you couldn't move...

you can do it...they can only controll over cerntain things.... you have a soal... thats what makes you you. theres always a way out ya just have to find it.

i think that the person who is acting cant be that mean if she really was that mean i think that that would be a horrid song to watch but it is sad and heartbreaking
